jsでクリックしたときに波及効果を作成するにはどうすればよいですか? (コード例)

<p>
   <i></i>
</p>

<style>
p {
    margin: 0;
    position: relative;
    padding: 60px 30px;
    background-color: orange;
    color: #fff;
    width: 200px;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-align: center;
    border: 20px solid #000;
}
i {
    position: absolute;
    width: 520px;
    height: 520px;
    border-radius: 50%;
}
</style>

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
<script>
    (function() {        
        var key = true;
        $("p").click(function(event) {            
            var e = event || window.event;            
                if (key) {
                    key = false;                
                    var scale = 0;                
                    var a = 0.8;                
                    var timer = setInterval(function() {                    
                    if (scale >= 1 || a <= 0) {
                          scale = 0;
                          a = 0.8;
                          clearInterval(timer);

                        "transform": "translate(-50%,-50%) scale(" + scale + ")",                        
                        "background-color": "rgba(225,225,225," + a + ")"
                    });
                    scale += 0.01;
